Embracing Love in an Old-Fashioned Way

Elsa y Elmar's song "Forma Antigua" delves into the theme of love expressed in a traditional, perhaps even nostalgic, manner. The lyrics repeatedly mention having an 'old-fashioned way' of loving and understanding, which suggests a deep, sincere, and perhaps more deliberate approach to relationships. This contrasts with modern, often fast-paced and superficial connections. The singer acknowledges that while others may not understand this method, it is meaningful and fulfilling for her and her partner.

The song also touches on the sacrifices made for love. The repeated line 'Dejé tanto atrás' (I left so much behind) emphasizes the personal changes and sacrifices the singer has made to be with her partner. This line underscores the depth of her commitment and the lengths she is willing to go to maintain this relationship. It speaks to the idea that true love often requires letting go of past habits, fears, or even parts of oneself to grow together with another person.

Additionally, the song explores the singer's vulnerability and fear of pain, as she mentions a 'strange way of hiding' and getting lost in silence and fear. This vulnerability is juxtaposed with her desire to love and be loved in a way that is genuine and profound. The plea for a 'forma antigua' to do things right reflects a longing for authenticity and a deeper connection that transcends modern-day superficialities. The song beautifully captures the essence of a love that is both timeless and deeply personal, resonating with anyone who values sincerity and depth in their relationships.
